[Verse 1]
I wore my pain like glass
You watched it cut me slow
Bruised knees on the hallway floor
Still you said, "I know"
I was fighting demons
In my own head all night
You saw the blood on my hands
Then stepped out of sight
[Pre-Chorus]
You knew I was sinking
You heard me call your name
But you turned your face away
And fed the flame
[Chorus]
Where were you?
Where were you?
When I was breaking in two
Where were you? (where were you?)
You saw me bruised and beaten
You left me in the rain
Instead of help you held the match
And fed the flame (fed the flame)
[Verse 2]
I gave you every warning
You gave me empty air
A room full of your silence
And a chair left bare
Now every scar is talking
It says you walked away
While I was choking on the smoke
You chose to stay
[Pre-Chorus]
You knew I was sinking
You heard me call your name
But you turned your face away
And fed the flame
[Chorus]
Where were you?
Where were you?
When I was breaking in two
Where were you? (where were you?)
You saw me bruised and beaten
You left me in the rain
Instead of help you held the match
And fed the flame (fed the flame)
[Bridge]
I don't need your mercy now
I learned your kind of love
It leaves a handprint on the wound
Then asks what it was
So keep your sorry with you
Keep your hollow truth
I buried every answer
And I buried you
[Final Chorus]
Where were you?
Where were you?
When I was breaking in two
Where were you? (where were you?)
You saw me bruised and beaten
You left me in the rain
Instead of help you held the match
And fed the flame (fed the flame)
Where were you?
Where were you?
